If you don’t get tested,
you won’t know

Left untreated, STIs can have serious long-term consequences and can harm your reproductive system and overall health. Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)4 is a serious infection of the female reproductive system which includes the womb, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. Although there are no obvious symptoms,5 PID increases your risk of:

• Internal abscesses
• Chronic pelvic pain
• Tubal or ectopic pregnancy (i.e., when a pregnancy occurs
  outside of the uterus, which can be fatal for the woman)
• Miscarriage or loss of early pregnancy
• Inflammation of the uterine lining following childbirth
• Infertility

Curable, but not harmless

The good news is that most STIs are easily cured—if you take the right, highly specific, antibiotic for your particular type of infection.

Chlamydia

is the most
common STI caused
by a bacteria. Treating
chlamydia quickly is
critical. It will not repair
any damage already
done, though.8

Gonorrhea

is also
caused by a bacteria.
Up to 20% of women
infected with gonorrhea
develop PID.10 If you’re
pregnant but go
untreated, your baby
can be infected during
childbirth.11

Trichomoniasis

(or “trich”) is a very
common STI caused by
a parasite, and 70% of
infected persons don’t
develop any symptoms.
Untreated infections
can last from months to
years.13 Other effects include increasing the
risk of contracting HIV by two to three times
and giving birth to infants who are small for
their gestational age.

Why does the Visby Medical Sexual Health Test include these three infections?

• As a diagnostic company, we understand that chlamydia and gonorrhea are currently two of the most widely spread STIs, making their quick diagnosis and treatment of high importance.
  • Furthermore, STIs are frequently asymptomatic, with nearly 50% of gonorrhea cases and 80% of chlamydia cases being asymptomatic in women.
• Currently, there is no reporting requirement for trichomoniasis by public health authorities, meaning that there might be a significant under diagnosis and reported numbers of this STI.
  • This is especially concerning as trichomoniasis has been identified to increase risk of contracting HIV two- to three-fold, raising the need for tracking and treating much more important over the last several years.
  • Also, approximately 70% of all trichomoniasis cases are asymptomatic.
• A 2019 KFF poll found that a large share of the public is unaware of how common STIs are, with far less than half (36%) aware that STI rates are increasing every year.
